What does frequency describe?
ddd [48]

The whole definition of frequency is:  <em>How often something happens.  </em>

Especially referring to something that happens over and over and over and over.

One example is Choice-C: How often the particles of a medium vibrate.

"Frequency" comes from the word "frequent".  That means "often", and "frequency" just means "often-ness" ... HOW often the thing happens.

Some other examples:

Frequency of jump-roping . . . maybe 60 per minute .

Frequency of rain . . . maybe 5 per month .

Frequency of an AM radio station . . . maybe 1 million waves per second.

(If it's something <u><em>per second</em></u>, then we call it "Hertz".  That's not for the car rental company.  It's for Heinrich Hertz, the German Physicist who was the first one to prove that electromagnetic waves exist.  He sent radio waves all the way ACROSS HIS LABORATORY and detected them at the other side ( ! ), in 1887.)

Frequency of the wiggles in the sound wave coming out of a trumpet playing the note ' A ' . . . 440 Hertz.

Frequency of sunrise and the Chicago Tribune newspaper . . . 1 per day

Frequency of the cycle of Moon phases and an average human woman's ovulation cycle: 1 per 29.531 days, 1 per ~28 days .

marishachu [46]
The waste products of a nuclear fission power plant can best be described as radioactive waste. 
These are the by-products from the processes carried out that produce nuclear energy. This type of waste is highly dangerous. A lot of attention has to be paid to the collection and disposal of this waste as it must not reach any near by water bodies for example. It can be deadly for life.

3. a) Your body is made up of several simple machines that help you move. Identify three
Alja [10]

Answer:

Explained below

Explanation:

1) The human arm: This is a type of simple machine called "Lever". In this type of machine, the elbow acts as the fulcrum, the palm serves as the load because that's where we place the load we want to carry. While the inner part of the arm which is the inner part of the elbow represents the effort because that is the joint we mover when making use of our arms.

2) Pulleys: An example of this in the human body is the knee cap where the direction of an applied force is changed. Thus means as it is in motion, it alters the direction for which the quadriceps tendon pulls on the tibia.

3) wheel and axle: An example of this in the human body is the lateral rotation of the shoulder joint medial. The humerus which is the bone between the shoulder and elbow will act as the axle while the rotator will be the will because when it is rotated a little bit, the humerus will move along with it.
